Is he a sophmore or will he take a redshirt?


The LSU website lists him as a junior. He played two years in Junior College so I would guess he has two years of eligibility left. I don't know if he's eligibile for a red shirt year or not.

Could winout a starting spot. Big strong and athletic. Have to see how he does against SEC level competition. Hopefully one our many taented guards can move out to and hold down the LT spot (unless Vadel Alexander, Hawkins or Edinburg step up)

Not eligible for a redshirt. He has 2 years to play 2. Should contribute this year but will not start.

How about a jumbo package at the goal line where Fanaika comes in as a tight end and Dillon Gordon is a wing back?

Run Hill behind Copeland (280 pounds) to the right side where Alexander (350 pounds), Fanaika (340 pounds) and Gordon (280 pounds) are all blocking at the point of attack.

probably, but you can't say that with certainty. He may come in and be better than someone like Williford or Alexander or Hawkins and just take a starting spot. Just don't know untill he gets here. Got to see what he brings and how fast he can mesh in.

He played guard in juco. As far as I know he has never played center. To tall for the center possession .i think someone on the rant started the center talk. He's not a center

I would very much like to see him on the o-line. We need a little help there. But I also wouldn't mind seeing him as d-tackle if he is pretty fast for a guy his size.
